Sue and Ed Williams Celebrate Summer

Ed and Susan Fieg Williams arrived for their annual pilgirmage to the Air Venture airshow near Lake Winnebago in Oshkosh, Wisc. recently, just in time to see a P-51, the vaunted World War II fighter plane, touch down.


The P-51 - which Susan's father, Bud Fieg, flew during the war - is among many 20th century "warbirds" flying or being exhibited during the program. The airshow continues through July 31.

Ed is a retired electrician who is building a flyable aircraft in his basement and has a particular interest in ultra-light aircraft, as he owns and flies one.

Ed and Susan also will soon celebrate their 25th wedding anniversary and are contemplating a return to one of their favorite vacation spots, Bedford Springs in the high western mountains of Pennsylvania, a resort built virtually on the side of a cliff (almost).  It is one of Ed Fieg and Barb Harris' favorite places, too.

One of the fairways there, a short par three, is so steep that you can't see the surface of the green or the flag high above you from the tee box, and you almost hit a wedge to get up there (Swing hard!).
